Bilingual
You know that many of us, we miss those days of harmony
And we'll like to see them again, and again, and again
Said many of us, we miss those days of innocence
And we'll like to see them again, and again, and again

So, tell me where are you now, Victor Banjo?
We look to the sky and the stars are gone
Only vultures feeding off, the backs of the poor
The weak and the people's frustration
You tell me, where have you gone, Kaduna Nzeogwu?
The sun doesn't shine in the east anymore
And the west no longer sees any ray of hope
And in the north, in the south, it's locust season
ย
So tell me, where will it berth this floundering ship?
The storm is gathering and the moment comes
When denial will no longer be enough
And the horrors of the past will be exposed
So tell me, how will you gag millions of voices?
The season of reckoning is drawing near
When the people come together to make a new pact
On how to live together or move apart
You know, e don tey wey we dey talk am
Brother, e don tey wey we dey talk am
Yeah, eh-eh, no be today o, no be today
My brother, you know, e don tey wey we dey talk am
E don tey wey we dey talk am, yeah, eh-eh
No be today o, no be today, my sister
ย
You know, e don tey wey we dey talk am
E don tey wey we dey talk am, yeah, eh-eh
No be today o, no be today
My people, you know, e don tey wey we dey talk am
E don tey wey we dey talk am, yeah, eh-eh
No be today o, no be today, my people
ย
We seek justice and liberty
Truth and honor in high places, yeah
No be today o, no be today
We seek freedom and prosperity for all
We seek an end to poverty in this land
Woah, no be today o, no be today
We want more
Yeah, we want more
No be today o, no be today
We want more
Yeah, we want more
No be today o, no be today
We want more
